If we can't chase 250 or so against Afghanistan at our home ground we don't deserve to win the series.

anything above 220 is bonus for them ..we could have chased only till 220 i feel anything more than that is out of our reach unfortunately

Good challenge for the Zimbabwe batsman. Hopefully Ervine scores big today

It's raining at my house, so this is going to be rain affected somehow. Damn.
That last missed run out opportunity by Chatara was bizarre.

253 is not a huge total. So if rain does play a part it should work in our favour. We should just bat conservatively for the first 10 overs and make sure we don't lose any wickets.

Does the fact we took 9 wickets help when D/L is working out the score we're chasing ?
